Environmentally Responsible

Bud's Paint & Body Shop uses water soluble paints that are more durable and environmentally friendly than traditional automotive paints. Water soluble paints have better coverage and we are able to better match vehicle paint colors to your original factory color. With less clean up time and faster drying time, we can get your car back to you that much more quickly.

When we built our state of the art facility we planned for a new ground source heat pump to be more energy efficient. We also recycle all possible materials including cardboard, metal and trash.

Rental Cars Available

Through an arrangement with Enterprise, when you drop off your car for repair Bud's Paint and Body shop you can have a rental car ready for you at our location. All claims against another person's insurance company are eligible for a rental paid for by that person's insurance company. In some cases your own insurance company covers a rental when getting body work done. Check your policy, the cost is very small for the ease it provides. Our staff will help you with the rental paperwork, and our rental company is accepted by most insurance companies.
